Subscribe for The Democrat Sidney Schanlaub, a former editor of the Morocco Courier, now an industrious tiller of the soil of Newton county, north of Mt. Ayr, was a Rensselaer visitor yesterday. Despite the tact that he is still troubled with rheumatism and has one leg in a cast, W. L. Wood of Parr, the republican nominee for joint-representative from this diatbict. is busy campaigning over the territory. However much we may admire Logan’s energetic campaign, the voters of the district will stand by the Hon. Patrick Hayes of Idaville, the democratic nominee for reelection, whose splendid record In the lower house of the last legislature proved conclusively that he was a man one could tie to. Mr. Hayes’ vote on all important questions was invariably on the right side and in the interests of his constituents and the people of the entire state. The Democrat expects to see Mr. Hayes re-elected by a greatly increased .majority.
